Media notes
A male in non-breeding plumage perched and wing stretching in the top of a poplar. Elevation: 38 m. Date added to IBC: November 6, 2017.
Observation details
Initially a couple picked up in flight from the Old Hall site, appearing to fly out from around the swimming pool. Shortly afterwards 3 flew into one of the large trees there and one male in winter plumage showed very well. One then flew off towards Comberbatch and soon afterwards three more flew out of the same tree. Later in the morning an individual was seen again in the same area. First reported here a few days ago (one and then two together) and part of a nationwide influx, apparently due to a failure of beech mast on the continent.
